Angry My door is stuck!!!

Guys, I need some serious help. The passenger door on my ti is stuck, it doesnt open. The lock moves up and down when i lock/unlock it, but either from the inside or the outside, the handles dont pull out all the way. I cant even take the door panel off all the way, because in order for that to happen you need to open the door, but i was able to loosen it where i can kinda reach into where the lock mechanism is. The problem is, i have no clue what to do from there. The linkage is connected, because when the door is locked, i am able to unlock it by pulling the inside handle. I am out of ideas and patience and NEED HELP. Any ideas or suggestions will be much appreciated. Thanks.

Look for signs that the door might be off-kilter with the frame based on the gap with other body pieces. If it's uneven, move the door to even out the gap while simultaneously pulling on the door handle.
