I could not stop myself from sharing it with all of you vs I couldn't stop myself to share it with all of you.

The correct sentence is 'I could not stop myself from sharing it with all of you.' The use of 'from' is necessary after 'myself' in this sentence. The second option, 'I couldn't stop myself to share it with all of you,' is incorrect because 'to share' should be replaced with 'from sharing.'
