I have been used to it vs I already used to it

The correct phrase is "I have been used to it." The phrase indicates that you have become accustomed to something over a period of time. On the other hand, "I already used to it" is incorrect because it lacks the necessary auxiliary verb and the correct form of the verb "used."
