Does Xanax make you not care about (or love) things and people in your life anymore when used over an extended period of time?

Xanax will change your entire way of life while calming you down. It is a very effective medicine that comes with a dark side of dependence and withdrawal

Yes, as Eddy has stated, it can cause such things, in some people that take it. According to the NIH, that can happen to some people with most anxiety medications and antidepressants.

It also carries the risk of being habit forming and a sudden abrupt withdrawal can create the risk of seizures, according to the FDA.

If it is becoming a real problem for you, you should inform your doctor, as you may need to try a different medication.

Is there anything else I can help with?
