Doing something in a different environment, like the computer, certainly could help.
But maybe the story you're writing you just don't really want to write. Or maybe you need a break from writing. Have you written a lot, or been really stressed or tired for some reason? (Perhaps lots of school work?) If so, maybe you just need a break. If that's it, you'll get the writing itch soon.
Some people find that sitting down and just writing *anything* for several minutes (including the million thoughts in your head), can clear their heads and get them ready to write the story again. (This can actually work surprisingly well.)
Another thing some people do is write out the plot and things about the characters in advance. Some people don't find it very helpful. (I, for one, am rarely helped by detailed notes, and my outlines ahead of time are generally very sparce or non-existent. But it gives some people added confidence and sense of direction.)
I didn't read the other thread so I might have repeated something. But I like to give my own advice! So sorry if I'm repeating a bunch of stuff.
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence.
I mean I can... I'll start writing- then i'll get distracted there will be a MILLION thoughts going through my head litterally 
i won't be able to consentrate and soon i'll find my-self sitting there with a pencil in my hand and nothing but a few senences written it's soooo frusrating i need help
