Android Central Question

I have anxiety about things. So I like to have specific people on emergency bypass, whether they have an emergency or not. Just so if there is, I hear my phone without hearing everything else (notifications and whatnot). Is there a way I can choose which contacts can bypass on silent mode?
 
Look under Settings, Sound & Notification, Do Not Disturb, Priority Only, where you can allow certain things.

I don't know about Samsung devices so it may be done differently on them.
 
You can designate favorite contacts by tapping the star within the contacts app. Then go to Settings, Sound and Vibration, Do Not Disturb, Allow Exceptions, Custom to allow favorite contacts to bypass the Do Not Disturb block.
