Default Transmission screwed?

Yesterday I went into 1st gear when I shouldn't have. Now 1st gear just slides out. Every other gear works fine? Did I screw up the syncros or something deeper in the transmission? Is my transmission screwed? Is it worth it to fix it or get it fixed?

What do you mean it slides out?

Soon as I release the clutch the shifter comes right out. No real popping like before. It simply won't stay in or maybe its not even going in. I have a pro 5 shifter and I tried adjusting it, but no luck. I may have to totally take it out and reinstall. I bought the car with it on.
