Should we not show emotions?

Are emotions bad for you? What did stoics think?
The main thing that stoicism stood for was not acting on your emotions which now gets translated into not having emotions. Now there is a very thin line between the two things. Not acting on your emotions is not the same thing as supressing your emotions. This is how people get stoicism all wrong in our generation. What we're being told is that to gain the upper hand in a situation and to actually resolve it, you need to stop feeling all your emotions , you need to keep them aside and to focus on the solution and focus on what we need to do. But stoics do not believe in that. Stoics do not agree with not having emotions and not feeling emotions.
