Noise from 5spd transmission 1990 civic LX

I have a noise that's pretty noticeable above 6000 rpm coming from the transmission. It's best described as a rapid rattle almost like a geiger counter. It's only present in 1st and 2nd and when it's making this noise I have to shift slowly or it will grind into gear. The sound goes away if I very firmly grab the shifter to prevent it from shaking. The shifter linkege felt okay although I'm not sure and the transmission is full of fluid. I don't know if my transmission is just going out considering the car has 300k on it or if it's something else.
