I try to change quite often too, maybe not so often, thiugh. Might be if you just hold the bat without gloves; can wear the grip down massively I think.

I also like to try and change my grip relatively frequently, probably twice a season, plus a new one at the start after winter nets.

I think having a fresh grip helps me have confidence in the bat.

As mentioned above, holding a grip with sweaty hands really knackers them out - I always use gloves when practicing as a result.
