Default 95 Civic clutch issue

I recently bought a 95 civic hatch and I'm having an issue with the clutch. I don't think the clutch is bad because it's not slipping, but it is loose. When I push the clutch in, it is loose until about halfway down and it's hard to change gears, I couldn't even put it into reverse at all at one point. I had no issues at all and then suddenly this happened with no warning (at least none that I noticed). I've researched some issues and have found that it could be one of a few things. It could be my fluids, master cylinder, or slave cylinder. I'd like a second opinion or a little more info on this before I actually try anything since money is too tight for trial and error.

Csc is a cheap fix, have someone get in the car and press the clutch in while you watch the slave cylinder to see if its functioning properly.

By loose, I mean there is no resistance on it at all. I think that it's not engaging at all until I press it at least halfway down and I'm not sure that it fully engages at times even when it's pressed all the way down.
