It needs to be reflexive. No te contengas

You could also say this:

No te encierres los sentimientos = Don't keep your feelings locked up inside.

No te escondas los sentimientos = Don't hide your feelings.

since ecierres conveys locking away, no te guardes would be better - Rey55, May 31, 2011

I agree, it should be no te guardes tus sentimientos. But, if you mean speak up, then we commonly say no te muerdas la lengua, which means don't bite your tongue (hold it in).
