Stone me if you want, but I'm genuinely afraid of hating my child. He's 6, and he behaves horribly, manipulating everyone. I'm tired of tolerating him. He constantly screams even just to ask him to wipe up after himself or take out the trash – he screams and yells, he doesn't like doing it, and he might tell me to f*** off or insult me. Where did he get these words and this behavior? He brings me to tears and embarrasses me. I yell at him, and he screams that I hit him, even though I haven't. I constantly try to explain things calmly, like in the store, but he doesn't listen. He starts throwing himself on the floor and screaming, and it's like this every time we go to a store. I'm so tired. Today, he behaved horribly in the store again, and I cried. The psychiatrist says it's normal, but what kind of normal is this...? I'm tired of my child, but I can't stand his awful behavior anymore. We don't have a father figure around to explain things to him, for male guidance.

See a psychologist. And complain about all of this, especially about "he yells for no reason that I hit him." If the psychologist says you need to see a psychiatrist, then go see a psychiatrist.
"Where is all this coming from?" — do you have internet access?

This looks like a case of educational neglect, and you need to work on yourself. How to build a parenting system so your child doesn't disrespect you. And the reason isn't the absence of a man or 'masculine' upbringing.

You're the only one who knows the reason for his behavior

My nephew was acting up. I lost it once and told him I'd count to three, and he'd better shut up and stand up, or I'd leave. He was lying there, screaming. So I left. I peeked from around the corner, and when he realized I was gone, he got up and started running around looking for me. I made him wait about 20 minutes, then I came back. He didn't scream anymore. Basically, kids are tricky; they test their boundaries like this. They push as far as they can. There have to be consequences for that kind of behavior.
