Filling in forms help

For credit cards what do i put in box "what was debt for?"

Its just been wasted if i'm brutally honest.

Do I just put general living expenses?

Also what about for date credit taken, is this the date i got the card?

Thanks in advance

By the way did anybody else feel totally agitated leading up to court. i'm there monday and just cant settle.

    I put living expenses for most, except for when it was balance transfer or when something over £500 had been paid out at any point, which I mentioned specifically.

    Totally normal to feel agitated. I lost a lot of sleep before court date. My mind refused to shut down.
