Why can't I find Blocking Mode anymore?

I can't find Blocking Mode anymore for some reason

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 and I recently upgraded my OS to the latest version 5.01.

I just tried to access Blocking Mode today and I can no longer find it. I checked in some books and one of them said I can access Blocking Mode by tapping on Settings -> My Devices and then Blocking Mode.

I seem to remember that was how I used to do it. But I can no longer find it there and I'm thinking it might be because the new version of the OS put it somewhere else. Of course, I may also be mistaken and it may actually be somewhere else and this book may be mistaken.

Does anyone know where I can find Blocking Mode in the latest version of the OS?

Oh! I think I found it. It's now called "Interruptions".

If you are interested, take a look here:

and here:

Oops. The above link was recommended but it is about Nexus which is Google's product and so I don't think it will work for my S4.

I'm still in the dark on how to use the Blocking Mode functionality. This definitely is not a good feature of the new OS IMO because it has me spending hours trying to find out how to use Blocking Mode functionality now.

Go to "Settings, My Device, sound and notifications, do not disturb. This allows you to set a time and days to turn off notifications and calls.You can set exceptions such as calls or messages from certain people
