The sign of a worn clutch is failure to accelerate as rapidly as usual: the engine will race and the car will only slowly pick up speed. Eventually, you will shift into gear and the car won't move at all.

You should not attempt to replace the clutch yourself unless you have considerable mechanical skills. In this case, the problem is most likely that the spring holding the clutch pedal in place is broken.
