With all the excitement of Easter I seem to have lost crossword ability here:

1ac Right at sea (9)
1dn Patience game (9)

now here is where you'll laugh, i have ideas of the other surrounding clues but as yet not entered them as I have no idea for the above two clues.Hence why i havent typed possible included letters.

As ever, any help will be appreciated.

inion - thank you for that

My final 2 here & this will provide my spelling mistakes I feel.

6ac Attracting no attention (13)
--c-o---c-o-s

now my real teaser is 9dn willing to aide society (6-8)
--b-i-a-i-i-e-

again thank you in advance, my brain is having its own bank holiday today !

6 should be inconspicuous, but that doesn't seem to fit your letters.

That was my fear, which means 8dn is nor perplex & anorexia 20ac is incorrect too.

8dn was flummox (7)
20ac mild mental disorder (8)

flummox could be confuse. Do you have any letters for either?

8dn i now have to be starting with N, 5th letter L, without being crass, has me flummoxed myself:, this is based on 6ac as inconspicuous which is confirmed by all the other clues......
