I love Modern Family, great show.

I laugh all the time or think things are funny when there probably not in therapy. Often time I find myself telling my T about something serious like being hit or a physical altercations with my parents as a kid and I'm all smiley and chuckling. Strange I know, but my T has never judged me by this. I think its some type of defense mechanism that Ts are well aware of.

I wouldn't be overly concerned about how you "appear" for your first appointment. Your T is there to help you.

I'm not even gonna try to tell you to relax cause I know there was no hope of this for my first appointment. Maybe its best just to accept your gonna be nervous and its natural in this situation.
