And listened to me and reassured me they won't push me to do anything I don't want in terms of treatment. I hope that turns out to be true. I was very clear about what I do and do not want.

I'm dreading the actual appointment but at least it can't be as awful as my first psychiatrist was! I went and left my own negative review of him and I hope it keeps someone from suffering like I did.
This is a good step. I hope in pays off and your appointment is a good one. It was nice of your family member to be there with you.
