The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of melatonin, diazepam, and placebo on the level of anxiety in patients undergoing surgery. The main question it aims to answer is:

• Is melatonin effective in reducing the anxiety of patients undergoing surgery? Participants will be asked to answer a questionnaire then they will receive either melatonin, diazepam, or placebo, and then after an hour, they will answer the same questionnaire again.
