strange issues when shifting

When I'm pulling out i hear a tick tick tick tick coming from the hood and I can almost feel it in the frame (like at my feet). It's almost like the frame is trying to come apart when the car is moving. but if i pull out with the clutch pressed almost all the way in I dont feel it. Even when not using the clutch though I feel a weird "wirr" coming from the front. But I cant tell if its a transmission issue or engine issue. My dad says I probably ate up my clutch. First stickshift car, I have ABUSED it (miss gears all the time). Anyone recognize these symptoms?

in a way it sounds kind of normal, but since you said you abused the crap out of your transmission then maybe you screwed it up. and this car does make a lot of different sounds.
