It sounds as if you have connected the main supply to the light rather than the switched supply. You really should get a competent electrician in. You are are asking for trouble (shock or fire) if you do not.

It is illegal in the UK to do DIY this kind of electrical work in a bathroom. Get an electrician before you kill someone.
