Is it my trans, TO bearing or hydraulics?
With clutch pedal down I hear this loud sound of death (screatching squealing spound). Let off the pedal it goes away. Also from time to time with clutch pedal down and trans in gear the clutch stays engaged. I have to force it out of gear when that happens. I also have difficulty changing gears from time to time, unless I dbl clutch then it shifts smoothly.
What say you?

Unless the sound of death happens with the engine off, it's clutch related. Doesn't hurt to check the hydraulics though. I'd say TO bearing, but expect a clutch job. Broken TO bearings often fly around and destroy the rear main seal too. If it works at all still, I'd say it hasn't flown apart yet, but I'd replace the deal anyways.

If the trans will shift fine while the car is off, and then has trouble when it's running, chances are a bad clutch

Theres no noise at all while driving, it only comes when I push the pedal in and it isn't all the time. The trans shifts smoothly with the car off and if I dbl clutch. If I don't dbl clutch it wont shift smoothly probably about 75% of the time. Is the noise definitely a bad TOB or could bad hydraulics cause it? Why would dbl clutching allow me to shift smoothly?

Thank man, life has been really busy with lots of changes. Don't spend much time at all on the interweb.

Alright, guess that solves it.
