"When he dies of an overdose, an angel gives a heroin addict forty-eight hours to go back and convince his younger self to change his ways before it's too late."

I, frankly, find the concept confusing.? Who are these extra selves?? Where do they come from?? Previous lives (as in reincarnation)? Or are they earlier versions of the character in the same life..
Also, the objective goal is a negative.? He has to stop other selves from doing something.? The must not. It's almost always better to frame an objective goal in positive terms. IOW, the protagonist must proactively do some positive act that is life affirming, life redeeming.
And the protagonist should retain his agency; that is, he should remain the character who is ultimately in charge of his fate.? He is the pivotal character in his own life plot.? As written this logline seems to subcontract his fate out to his other selves.? It's up to them to save his sorry ass and by merely not doing.? Well, what must he proactively do to save his life that no other version of himself can do?
