Its an MA gearbox, there all basically like that due to the 1980's design 
Gearbox oil ever been changed?
If it has hope it had the correct oil from Peugeot / Citroen put in it

Nope, you just have to learn how to use them correctly.
Dont expect a Ford / Vauxhall style gearchange from a car from the PSA stable

Possible the diff slightly tight or the gears knocked slightly out of line with the driveshafts.
Have you had the car lase aligned to make sure it's not the chassis thats twisted?
BTW my cousin is calles Alana, so I guessed you were female
