You can file a police complaint regarding physical assault, threats, and false allegations. If she has mental health issues, consider seeking medical help. For protection, you may also seek a restraining order from the court. Consulting a lawyer will help you understand legal options.

It would be advisable to file a Criminal complaint or atleast an application in this regard to bring it on record. If filing FIR is an ok option do not forget to mention the drug related angle. However it is advised to discuss the whole issue with an advocate and file any complaint or application only under his supervision or else it may backfire strongly. Keeping silent in such cases is no doubt the worst option.

If her behaviour is intolerable towards you then you can anytime send a complaint regarding your grievances in writing to the police station according to your jurisdiction. And if you wish to go legal and if there's no scope of living together then you can also disown her from your movable and immovable property.
