clutch problem, hlep pls!

hi all
i have a 02 C4S, today when i was driving it, i noticed some problems on the clutch.
first when i engage in 1st gear, the pedal is a bit softer, and when i tried to release the clutch and push the gas pedal, it feels and sounds like the car is going to stall, so i give more gas to keep the car going, and this happens in every gear, i can hear the rattle noise(that the car is about to stall) and i feel the car has no power when i tried to give more gas.

so is my clutch gone? or something else?
thanks for help

Sounds like it is going, quickly. My free advice is to have it flat bedded to the shop and have them inspect and repair as needed. The more you drive on a slipping clutch increases the risk of more damage.

No one can say without inspecting. However, the quicker you have it repaired , after noticing an issue, the less you will have to do- generally speaking.

Sounds like a clutch to me too. If you wait too long to get it repaired, you may damage your flywheel.
