Probably the inner plastic on the handle is loose (close to breaking) or the mechanism has lost a spring.
There is no way of helping you until you dismantle it completely.
It's not a complicated job to do, but is time consuming.
You have a tutorial writen by JimBob I think.
The best thing to do is to dismantle it, and if you need help then post a few pics
