I think the question depends a lot of the social support that you have. I don't think that an internet forum is enough social support to expect to be really productive while being completely alone.

If I unschooled, I would be engaged in many other activities with social support like internships, classes, and possibly even school extracurricular activities.

Historically, I have had no problem getting things done with no social support.
