you could go up on the Zoloft if it is depression that is keeping you from doing your work. i have been in and out of school for the past four years, so i know how frustrating it is not to be able to get work done! do your profs know that you are having problems? sometimes talking w/ them can help if you need some extra time to get work done. you may also be able to get "incompletes" if you can't get the work done before the end of the semester.
i know that if you have a diagnosis of OCD or ADD/ADHD you can get extended time on tests and stuff. you would have to talk to your office of disabilities or whatever the office is called where you are.
one of my main problems is procrastination too. i get so anxious over doing a paper/project perfectly that i can't do anything. do you have a lot of anxiety?
i would suggest going to the library if you normally work at home, just get to a different environment and try to work. set yourself time limits for each paper/project/etc. if you get stuck, move on to another project and go back and finish the other thing later. just keep working on something, getting something done. Good luck!!! i wish you all the best!
