Question clutch not disengaging

no clutch problems, parked truck for a month, now clutch wont disengage fully.
checked fluid level, ok, pedal feels fine, tried driving it (very hard to shift), can get it into reverse from a stop but not forward gears, to get into 1st first place tranny in first then depress clutch all the way crank (it cranks slowly) start let saftey brake off, get the idea. Whats going on????

If you actually want help you need to tell us year, model, engine size and anyting else you can about the truck. Different years use different styles of clutches.

I don't know if the newer trannys do this, but I have an old GMC flatbed that does this when it sits awhile. In my case, it's rust on the flywheel, and it burns off in a short while.
