Suppressing or hiding your emotions is a dead end. That's not how you can successfully go about it, especially as you said that your "friends" are feeding off your emotional instability and manipulating you to burst from within.
What you need to do is be in total harmony with yourself and enter a state of high self-esteem that is totally shielded from other people's attacks. It's not about ignoring what people think, but about noticing that whatever criticism is pointed to you, is in fact, an issue the attacker needs to solve for themselves for their own good - and has nothing to do with you if it's on an emotional level.
So, you have to enter a sense of peace over who you are because then, the negative emotions simply do not come into existence, no matter what external pressure or circumstances. I've never made the leap into this state, I've always been this way and I find it kind of double-edged that I can't really provide much help, other than letting you know that it is possible to live this way, internally in your mind.
