Domestic Violence - Searching everywhere for a $1000 AUD loan

I'm a 22 y.o. Australian undergrad student exiting a negative relationship with her parents, bound only by financial support. In a month I will become eligible for Government (Centrelink) benefits when I return to full-time study (NewStart allowance, Youth allowance, Rent assistance), and will obtain a domestic violence financial assistance package from my bank ($1000) (Commonwealth Bank of Australia) with food coupons :). At the moment I am unemployed, except for the odd writing job on freelancer, but I have strong references for my age so I believe I will easily find a job. For instance, throughout 2016 and some of 2017 I worked as a researcher and paralegal at a legaltech startup that is doing reasonably well now. I do have contact details for my previous supervisor if required. However I left to study on exchange (during which I had more time to reflect and deconstruct my situation) and have spent my savings from that time. I know that Payday loans can be dangerous but I have exhausted my options. If anyone knows another way I could legally obtain anywhere from 500-1000 AUD within a short amount of time from a financial service (I know I'm asking for miracles all throughout this post here), please let me know :)

    Oops, thanks for your help! I don't mind borrowing from a lender anywhere in the world, though? Will pay good rates according to your terms :)

    I doubt you will get a loan without income - 100% you wont get a loan from a lender in a different country with no income.
