I don't find posture correctors help if you don't know what you're trying to achieve.
For me, I've also been awful for years and I even went to physio for it. The only things from physio that helped was the foam roller techniques for the back.
Stupid little things than can help at first, swap your left and right pockets. This helps if you're sitting on your wallet or have some odd posture to quickly and constantly retrieve your phone from a certain side of a pocket. TBH, the left/right pocket thing is also a funny to suggest to people to see how many times in an hour they'll go to the wrong pocket due to being so programmed to go after their phone.
I also accidentally discovered the way to fix my posture via yoga. It's the only activity where it's blatantly obvious via your pose if one side is stronger than the other. Actively working on balancing the poses on both the left and right side helped a ton if sorting out some of the issues of poor posture by properly focusing on strengthening the muscles on my weaker side so I don't have to overcompensate as much. For me I started noticing results after around 2-3 weeks with like 2-3x 1 hour sessions and this was basic stuff like Vinyasa flows and Forest yoga stuff. I'd even feel uncomfortable sitting in my old postures due to me being able to feel the imbalance.
