Sarah Silverman needs a little extra help cracking a smile these day…or helping others crack a smile. The comedienne, who recently split from boyfriend of five years, Jimmy Kimmel, reportedly indulged in a bit of marijuana smoking in order to help deal with the pressures of performing stand-up about the break-up.

According to The National Enquirer, last month Silverman broke down with nerves only moments before she was due to appear on stage at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in Hollywood, Calif. A source spoke to the tabloid about Silverman’s behavior, saying, “Sarah thought telling jokes about her breakup would be a walk in the park, but she was struck with a case of the jitters so severe she didn’t know if she’d be able to go on…Sarah went to a comedian friend and told him she desperately needed some pot to calm her nerves.” Apparently the old-fashioned trick of counting to ten slowly just doesn’t do it for Sarah Silverman’s nerves.

Seems that the pot did the trick. The source continued, “Sarah pulled it together on stage. Her timing was dead on and the audience responded well to the new material, which did include a few bittersweet reflections on her breakup.”

So what do we learn? There’s nothing to help us share our “bittersweet reflections,” like a few hits of an illegal substance.

The news that Sarah Silverman smokes pot isn’t exactly revelatory. According to The National Enquirer, Silverman has previously admitted that she enjoys lighting up in social settings and that she enjoys “eating pot brownies.”

We wonder if one of the hardest parts about breaking-up with Jimmy Kimmel will be missing those happy times the couple shared in the kitchen, baking…with drugs.
