I find it really hard too. the anxiety at times is unbearable.
I just try to do my paper at the school computer lab. that way I can't be distracted by garbage like watching porn, video games, yelp (have no trouble at all writing restaurant reviews), or bullshitting on zilvia.
Also if you can, start by doing a rough outline IN PAPER, in some secluded spot (I like the shitter). Idea is to isolate yourself from distractions. Outline will provide you with the structure of paper. Filling in the details is a lot easier than writing from scratch.
Reflection papers aren't too bad. It's just bullshitting, and no research really. I just wrote one (2-page double spaced, for psychology master's class) in about an hour yesterday. You can be entirely phoney, tell the teacher what they want to here, as long as you're not insulting their intelligence too much.
I find that listening to music is super helpful too. It usually helps me concentrate, and makes the affair a bit easier. It keeps my motivation level up. Work-out music I find works best (whatever it may be for you).
