I have to agree with Dinah here, that you can make more than one choice. You can make a choice, decide you don't like it, and make another. Yes, you can't necessarily undo the first choice, but there are always more choices.
Maybe I'll put my own belief another way: once it feels like you've lost innocence, the thought of going back is nice, and comforting, but that comfort is illusory. Have I wanted to go back to innocence? Certainly. And I think I even try to find my way back to ignorance (not knowing) sometimes by refusing to accept my present knowledge. But it always catches up to me in the end.
Sorry if that's convoluted. Mostly I wish you peace in your current struggles.
