Clutch issues.. need help please

Hey everyone,
I began posting this in the Facebook group but it needs more attention.

My clutch is giving me tons of chatter at take off, seems like I'm losing some DOT4 as well since I had to add a few ounces today. I also get a strong pulsating feeling from the clutch pedal when down (disengaged). While the pedal is down I also hear an external whirring noise, like a bearing going out. I am very mechanically inclined but have never done clutch/transmission work before and dont know what to look for or where to begin troubleshooting. Going up hill in 3rd/4th does give me a lot of intense chatter as well

Is it suggested to replace all clutch components at once? Is there a simpler issue I could be missing? I live in southern NH if anyone or any shop is able to steer me in the right direction. Thanks in advance. 2001 e53 3.0 247k miles
