I spent a grand total of about two minutes. I just block things I don't like in my feed as they come up and it got better very quickly. Sure, it's up to you to be principled enough to stash your immediate emotional reaction and desire to engage and instead evaluate and block content that's bad for you, and, sure, that's difficult at first, but it's easy once you realize it's bad for you and making you unhappy.

I think it's just like food. You need to develop the mental response when you look at something so that you consider whether it's good for you first.
